This report outlines the testing and evaluation of a continuously reinforced concrete pavement (CRCP) on IH35W near Fort Worth rehabilitated using diamond grinding instead of applying an asphalt overlay to extend the serviceability of the old concrete pavement. Surface macrotexture, skid,...

This document provides valuable guidance and information on the selection, design, and construction of cost-effective concrete pavement preservation treatments. It is based on a document prepared in 2008 but has been revised and expanded to include updated information to...

The purpose of this guide is to provide information on best practices in rehabilitation strategies for extending the service life of continuously reinforced concrete pavements (CRCP). The procedures described consist of defining the problem, identifying potential solutions, and selecting...

The 27-mi (43.5 km) section of US-290 between Loop 610 and Badtke Road consists of portland cement concrete (PCC) pavement built at various times with different pavement structures (10-inch and 13-inch-thick (250 mm and 330 mm) slabs). There are two pavement types (continuously...

The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) has by far the most continuously reinforced concrete pavement (CRCP) lane miles in the nation and sections as old as 50 years are still in service. Having served much longer than intended, some sections are...

Over the years, the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) has improved design and construction practices of Continuously Reinforced Concrete Pavement (CRCP), which has resulted in good overall performance of CRCP in Texas. At the same time, the improved design and construction practices changed...

This TechBrief describes both conventional methods and an alternative method for making full-depth repairs in continuously reinforced concrete pavements. The alternative method, which does not utilize continuous longitudinal reinforcement in the repair area, is suitable for repairing a single lane (or two...
